Good Bye RVP!

[Fist of Lehmann]

Alternatively it could actually support the point about not being a team player unless he's the most important person in the team.

Sure why not, given how disruptive he was before he was Arsenal captain. Never contributed to the birthday collections, never offered to buy the first round, always putting chilli powder in people's jockstraps.

Integration is important in terms of team spirit and cohesion, you can't have 10 superstars walking around only interested in the way they play, Incidentally RVP didn't perform for Holland and that's what we're talking about here, not Arsenal.

How Holland do doesn't mean a great deal, personally would have liked them to have done better though as they have a lot of good players and it's entertaining to watch top players play football, I've really enjoyed the Euro's think it's a refreshing change from all the frustrations of club football we have to go through.

Yeah I wanted the Dutch to do well too, for footballing reasons. But this hack trying to blame three players for those awful performances is just silly. Especially as there were viable replacements in the squad for all the players mentioned so what the hell was the manager up to if these three were wrecking the tournament for the Dutch? It doesn't add up, then again when does the chip wrapper quality tripe from a hack ever add up?

I haven't enjoyed the Euros (bar Spain vs Croatia and Germany vs Dutch) because the shitty negative teams are destroying it. The quality of football is so low for what is supposedly a premium competition. Watching Schweinsteiger, Ronaldo and Arshavin in the first game was fun and there was one run from Ox, but those highlights don't make up for the fact most of these teams can't pass a ball. I finally gave up watching though I'll tune back in for the England Italy game (for some weird reason).

Only if you like 8 players bricking up a goal. There has been a handful of notable performances, the rest has been dross. The fact it's a tournament gives it an extra buzz but if you just consider the football then there hasn't been much of that on display. Tonight will be equally painful with that awful excuse for a football team rolling out their bus again. Hopefully German ingenuity can dismantle it.

Any time anyone, no matter how ridiculous the source slags off one of our players, for whatever reason, it has to be true. Even moreso if there are no quotes.

Fuck supporting anything to do with Arsenal.

RVP had an ego problem at Feyenoord, and got into conflict with the other more senior players because he behaved as if he was captain, rather than a 19 year old just breaking to the first team. His ego shrunk somewhat at Arsenal, but after last season, he seems to have gone into relapse. I don't have a huge problem with arrogance, but what has he actually achieved in his career? Most of it has been spent injured, and it was only last season when he performed consistently well (albeit he faded after March).

I'd rather have team players who are on the up at Arsenal (like Giroud and Podolski hopefully) rather than fading prima donnas like RVP. Time to get rid I think.

I'll say it again

Shocking summer you have had

If Wenger was a poster, he would be you.

Shut the fuck up.

I don't know why you always pick on my posts re: RVP. Others on this thread have said the same thing.
